538 Chapter 538: Suffering Terrible Backlash!
Tang Li Xue's current condition was actually not that good.
After using the [War Goddess Mode] and the [Merge] skill at the same time, the backlash she received right now was even heavier than before when she was only using [War Goddess Mode].
Luckily, Tang Li Xue had already passed out because of extreme exhaustion, if she still remained conscious, she would be suffering unimaginable tearing pain all over her body right now.
However, Tang Li Xue's breath was getting weaker and weaker as if her breathing would stop at any moment.
Yaya and Phoenix of Pride also received backlash from [War Goddess Mode], but it was much lighter than Tang Li Xue.
Actually, Tang Li Xue herself was not getting stronger when she entered [War Goddess Mode]...
In short, Tang Li Xue only acted as a vessel to contain the power of both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride in [War Goddess Mode], so Tang Li Xue might seem many times stronger, but she actually only controls the power of three creatures in one body: her own power, Yaya, and Phoenix of Pride.
Plus she also used the [Merge] skill from [Twin Moons] to fuse with her perfect copy, so previously, Tang Li Xue's body actually held the power of four creatures at once!
Moreover, both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride have already become a lot stronger than before, so the burden that Tang Li Xue must bear as their vessel in [War Goddess Mode] would also increase significantly.
It was still unknown until now if Tang Li Xue could survive this extremely violent backlash, or if she might really get eliminated from the Hunting Foxes Festival because of it.
.....
While Tang Li Xue still fought against the [War Goddess Mode]'s violent backlash in her sleep, the brown fox in the form of a mole rat sniffed something when it was moving in the underground.
Even though the underground was dark, but brown mole fox has an incredible sense of smell, touch, and hearing.
The brown mole fox sniffed carefully again and followed the smell until it reached the place where Tang Li Xue was sleeping right now!
Yes, Tang Li Xue fought several times in the deep smelly turbid water before, and she still did not have any time to clean herself until now.
So, it was not strange that this brown mole fox with an incredibly sharp sense of smell could easily track where Tang Li Xue was hiding from her horrible stinky smell.
When the brown mole fox glanced at the treasure box near the sleeping Tang Li Xue, it became very excited.
Then when it saw the sleeping Tang Li Xue and Yaya, its eyes glinted with a cold light.
Ordinary mole rats might have poor vision, but this brown mole fox was different. Not only it has night vision, but it could see everything in the dark very clearly.
At first, the brown mole fox was still hesitating for a few moments about whether this was Tang Li Xue's trap or not.
But as the brown mole fox sensed that Tang Li Xue's breath became weaker and weaker, it immediately realized that Tang Li Xue was dying.
The brown mole fox could easily guess that Tang Li Xue might become like this because she fought against another fox for this treasure box before.
The brown mole fox instantly decided to quickly cut down Tang Li Xue and Yaya, then took the treasure box before running away quickly from here!
The brown mole fox pounced swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and raised its sharp claw while aiming at Tang Li Xue's throat!
Just when the brown mole fox's sharp claw almost tore Tang Li Xue's defenseless throat...
A tiny black silhouette suddenly jumped out on the top of the sleeping Tang Li Xue!
The brown mole fox's heart almost jumped out from its chest, and it swiftly jumped back into its tunnel hole!
The brown mole fox prepared to run away as quickly as it could from here, but it was still reluctantly peeking at the treasure box near the sleeping Tang Li Xue.
Then it accidentally saw the tiny creature that scaring it just now was actually only a palm-sized small black kitten!
The brown mole fox halted its runaway movement and turned back again.
The brown mole fox walked toward the sleeping Tang Li Xue again and stared at the cute tiny black kitten, then scolded: "Tsk, so it is only a small cute kitten! Scare this young miss to death!"
The small black kitten stared at the brown mole fox cutely.
Meooww~!
The brown mole fox seemed to like the cute small kitten quite a bit, but it still could not endure the temptation of the treasure box.
"I am sorry, Little Kitty~! I will not hurt you and your master, but I need to take that treasure box! Don't get angry at me, okay~?" The brown mole fox tried to comfort the small black kitten with its gentlest tone.
The brown mole fox jumped over the sleeping Tang Li Xue, but when it wanted to grab the treasure box...
Its vision was suddenly split into four!
'Eh? What is happening...?!' The brown mole fox thought in puzzlement.
Only after a few moments, it finally realized that it was not her vision that was split, but it was her body that split into four parts!
Until its last moment, the brown mole fox never thought that it was the previous small little kitten that killed it since the small little kitten did not let out any aura at all.
The brown mole fox's body shattered and turned into a group of white lights, then disappeared.
"Nyaow Nyan Meoowww~!!!" (Never call me, Little Kitty, you moron~!!!)
Little Loki angrily meowed, even though it looked even more cute instead.
The reason that Little Loki did not attack the brown mole fox was because it was only awake just now and still did not know whether the brown mole fox was an enemy or ally.
However, the brown mole fox's previous conversation confirmed that it was an enemy.
At first, Little Loki wanted to eat the brown mole fox with its [Heaven's Devour], but Little Loki instantly realized that this was an intentionally made world, and there was an extremely powerful creature supervising this entire world.
Little Loki immediately abandoned its intention to use [Heaven's Devour] and used its newly acquired skill, [Scythe Claw Qi], instead!
It was the skill Little Loki acquired after integrating the [Ancient Sword Qi] from so many ancient swords it devoured from the Heavenly Sword Immortal's tomb and the Sapphire Wasp Queen's sharp scythe attack.
After making sure that the brown mole fox had really disappeared, Little Loki jumped down from Tang Li Xue's furry body and hastily checked Tang Li Xue's condition.
Little Loki's expression turned very solemn in worry when it sensed Tang Li Xue's critical condition.
Little Loki wanted to help Tang Li Xue to alleviate her extremely severe condition, but it did not have any healing skills at all.
Little Loki became incredibly upset and annoyed since it could not do anything to heal Tang Li Xue right now.
When Little Loki was confused and did not know what to do, it unintentionally glanced at the treasure box beside Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki approached the treasure box and smelled a delicious fragrance from within the box.
Little Loki opened the treasure box with its tiny paws and found a three-colored herb inside the treasure box.
The delicious fragrance became much more intense after Little Loki opened the treasure box, even Little Loki started drooling just by smelling it.
Little Loki shook its head while trying its hardest to resist its instinct as pureblooded Taotie to devour this three-colored herb right away.
Little Loki wiped its drool with its paws and took the three-colored herb to Tang Li Xue.
Little Loki did not dare to grab this three-colored herb using its mouth since it was afraid that it accidentally swallowed the three-colored herb, so Little Loki grabbed it using its tiny paws instead.
Little Loki reluctantly glanced at the three-colored herb, it took a quick lick at the three-colored herb before stuffing it into Tang Li Xue's mouth.
Well, one lick to taste it was better than not tasting it at all, right?
At least, Little Loki thought so just now...
It could be seen from this that Little Loki actually really cared a lot about Tang Li Xue.
It could even restrain its instinct to devour everything especially delicious treasures as Taotie's cub for Tang Li Xue.
Both Little Yaya and Little Loki's timely awaken before were actually also not because of Tang Li Xue's luck.
It was because they have a close mental connection with Tang Li Xue, so both Little Yaya and Little Loki could sense it when Tang Li Xue was in danger.
*Ding!
[You had consumed the 300 Years Old Immortal Herb.]
[Your Toughness stat increased by 1,200.]
[Your Strength and Spirit stat increased by 600.]
[You have awakened (Quick Restore) divine ability!]
*Ding!
[System detected Host's current condition is critical!]
[Automatically activated (Quick Restore) divine ability to recover Host's condition back to normal!]
When Little Loki saw Tang Li Xue's breath quickly become stronger and stronger after she consumed the three-colored herb, Little Loki sighed in relief.
Then Little Loki started to regret and thought that maybe it only need to give Tang Li Xue a half of the three-colored herb before...
No, a half was still too much... Maybe one-third was enough to cure her severe critical condition... Well, let's just forget it...
Little Loki lazily stretched its body and jumped onto Tang Li Xue. It kicked away the sleeping Yaya and slept on top of Tang Li Xue's warm furry body instead.
